Robert shifted his gaze from Giana to Sharon with a mocking smile on his face, "What a coincidence! I
wasn't expecting to see you here"
Out of courtesy and respect for him, Sharon nodded slightly.
Robert snorted in disdain, "All right.It's most unlikely that you'll win the championship.You really need a
good celebration for the second prize.Otherwise, I'm afraid it might be the highest honor you can ever
get"
Different from Sharon, Giana even didn't bother to show any respect.
She crossed her arms and said, "Where did you come from, gringo? It's really ridiculous for you to keep
nagging others in poor Chinese.Didn't your Chinese teacher teach you how to speak?"
Robert glared at Giana frostily.
Robert recognized Giana whose posters could be seen in all the shopping malls, and she even
endorsed quite a few luxury products.
Seeing this, Rita said in grievance, "Ms.Clarke, wasn't it too much to attack others in this way?"
Giana asked, "Who are you?"
Rita seemed embarrassed for a moment.
Just as she was about to speak, Giana said, "Well.I have no interest in you.It has nothing to do with
me.But I have to clarify I'm not attacking others.I'm complaining about some old guy who's always
sarcastic just relying on his seniority.But if you think I'm referring to you, then there's nothing I can do
about"
"You..."
Sharon turned to Robert and said indifferently, "I respect and tolerate you, for you are senior.Thanks for
helping me make sense of one thing, that is, the apple does not fall far from the tree.Your students are
just like you.It doesn't matter whether I win or not.I just wish that you two would be as aggressive as
you are now when you stand on a real international arena"
After that, she left with Giana.
When they were in the toilet, Giana said, "We shouldn't have left in such a way.I haven't cursed them
enough"
"It's meaningless to talk to the people like them" Sharon said.
Rita's father was still lying in the morgue even without being buried, however, she was holding a
banquet here.
It was quite ironic.
Sharon washed her hands before turning around to ask, "Did you fight with Ruben?"
Giana was stunned at her question for a moment and then said, "No."
"Then why did you get along in such an awkward way?"
Giana replied simply with a smile, "I'm not that familiar with him.So it's normal for us to feel awkward
while staying together"
"Aren't you still shooting together?"
Sharon didn't believe what she said.
"Yeah, but we only act opposite each other in a few scenes and were in different casts.So we rarely
see each other."
After washing hands, Giana said, wiping her hands with tissue.
"Are we as close as friends in your mind?"
Sharon didn't know about how Giana defined their relationship, as to Ruben...She smiled, "Anyway,
thank you very much for taking care of Ruben these days"
"Not at all.That's what I should do"
Giana threw the crumpled tissue onto the sofa and suddenly said, "One more thing, did he tell you
something?"
Sharon was puzzled, "What is it?"
Seeing that she seemed to know nothing, Giana discontinued this topic, "Well.It's not my
business.Perhaps he's waiting for a proper time to tell you." The topic ended here, and Sharon did not
continue to ask.
Unexpectedly, on the way back, Sharon ran into the director of the competition, Louis.
Louis walked over to her and said, "Sharon, shall we talk?"
She nodded and said to Giana, "You can go back first."
"Alright."
After Giana left, Louis and Sharon walked to the balcony of the hotel.
Louis said regretfully, "Your work is really good ...However, I have to say that it depends on various
standards of judges."
Sharon smiled and nodded, "I know, and thank you very much for giving me this chance"
Louis sighed, "Don't be down.There will be lots of opportunities awaiting you.It's ability that counts, not
this occasional ranking"
After chatting with Sharon for a while, Louis added, "I don't know if it's convenient for you.I want to
arrange a show for your brand during this year's Fashion Week.Then your work will be seen by more
people"
Sharon was stunned without expecting Louis would offer her such a great opportunity.
Only top designers could hold their special brand shows at the International Fashion Week.
If she had won the championship this time, she would have found it reasonable to receive Louis’ offer.
In other words, only the champion could deserve it.
But...
Noticing her doubts, Louis smiled and explained, "Didn't I just say that neither the champion nor the
second place meant nothing? In this industry, what we value more is the designer's potential.I think you
are the best choice"
After hearing this, Sharon felt it hard to refuse the opportunity right in front of her.
However, she was unsure if she had enough time to prepare for this Fashion Week.
There was a lot of daily work to do in the studio.
If she was to accept this offer which even provided her with a special show for her brand, she would
have to devote more time and energy to it.
She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to balance well between the studio and the show.
Louis added, "It doesn't matter.It'll take me some time to get the contract and related work ready.There
are still a few days to go and you can think about it carefully."
Sharon exhaled in relief, "Thank you"
"Then I'll leave you to it.You can go back to think over the matter and just contact me once you make
the decision"
"Alright."
After both of them left, Rita came out of the corner, looked at her phone, and then pressed the pause
key of the recording.
When Sharon returned to the private room, Tiffany said, "Where did you go? The food cooled."
"I was having something to deal with"
After dinner, just as everyone was about to take a taxi to KTV, Giana said, "Sorry guys.I can't go with
you because I still have to get up early to work tomorrow."
Sharon quickly got it and said, "Well, then ...Ruben is about to leave.He can drive you home."
Ruben frowned, "I..."
Sharon pulled him up and said, "Didn't you tell me just now that you have something to do in the
school? You can drive Giana home.Hurry up"
Ruben pursed his lips, and just as he stood up and took a few steps forward, Giana turned around and
smiled, "Don't bother.My driver is waiting for me downstairs.Go to have fun."
After that, she waved her hand at Sharon and Tiffany, took the items and left.
Ruben stood still.
Sharon whispered, "What's wrong with you? Didn't I ask you to apologize to her last time? Didn't you
do that?"
Just as Ruben was about to say something, Tiffany came over and asked, "Was Ruben going back to
school? Why haven't I heard of that? Aren't you going to KTV?"
Sharon forced a hollow laugh, "It doesn't matter.He suddenly changes his mind and won't leave"
